ŌURA Welcomes Galen AI Team, Acquires Technology to Advance Connected Health AI Roadmap
To advance its vision to bridge clinical care and connected, personalized health technology, ŌURA is excited to welcome Galen AI to its team. Founded in 2025 by Stanford computer science graduates, Galen AI is an AI-powered personal health companion that brings together medical records, labs, medications, and wearable data into one secure, unified platform. Oura will acquire Galen AI’s technology and bring its team to Oura to help accelerate Oura’s AI-powered vision for a connected health companion.
“As we shape the next era of Oura, we’re investing in world-class talent to help us push the boundaries of what AI can do for personal health,” said Tom Hale, CEO at ŌURA. “Galen AI’s founders bring a rare combination of health domain knowledge, AI expertise, and product vision, strengthening our ability to deliver more personalized, more meaningful health insights to more people.”

That fragmentation makes it harder to see the full picture, understand what’s changing, or know what to do next. Solving that challenge requires not just great technology, but people who deeply understand the problem.
By bringing Galen AI’s team and their cutting-edge AI infrastructure into Oura, the company is accelerating its ability to connect those dots. The team’s experience unifying longitudinal health data across tens of thousands of healthcare systems and labs and developing AI-powered insights at the intersection of various modalities of health data will help Oura continue to design experiences where clinical data and continuous biometric signals work together, creating clearer, more contextual health insights for Oura Members.
“We started Galen AI to help people make sense of fragmented health data and turn it into meaningful, everyday action,” said Viraj Mehta, Co-Founder of Galen AI…
